If it's 1080p to 1080p and your budget is that low I would think it would be more of a side grade than a huge upgrade.
Wait until 4K becomes cheaper, or more freesync/gsync monitors become available.
Gsync needs to be experienced.

What's up with the mystery cards? Some have "Mystery #" in the name line, some don't.
It's a mystery.

When you watch a great action movie like Kingsman with the family and your father then says, "so why did you like this film but you hate the looks of that new terminator one coming out? They're the same thing."
Just to make this Steam related, I'll say I'm quite enjoying the new Sherlock Holmes game so far

If I own Tales of Maj'Eyal on Steam, can I buy the expansion on gog and properly install it?

PS: I keep seeing this as a worrying continuing theme but why is D4 cheaper on gog than on Steam?
Steam costs £3 extra for nothing.

Things have been more expensive on steam for quite a while now, even during sales.

How much is it on gog? I don't know how much freedom publishers have on gog with pricing, but I'm pretty sure they can adjust regional prices on Steam.

Neither film is particularly outstanding in terms of aesthetics and since we haven't actually seen the new terminator beyond trailers with chopped up scenes I think they pose a legitimate question.When you watch a great action movie like Kingsman with the family and your father then says, "so why did you like this film but you hate the looks of that new terminator one coming out?

Depends on the game (and on your country)
Some games have fair price packages and others don't, at least that's how it seems to work for me. D4 costs the same in both GOG and Steam here (Argentina) but some other games cost less on GOG.

Well judging from trailers only obviously, but T5 seems to have horrible acting and has been greatly miscast actors, horrible CG, bad humour and shits over series lore.

God Terminator looks so fucking bad.
Pretty cool that you can buy Steam credits from a supermarket now.

I would have never seen kings man based on its trailer. Glad my friend insisted I go see it.

I don't know if you can simply download it and copy the files to the Steam version (I assume you can as there's no DRM involved) but you can register the GOG versions on the te4.org site and then add them to your Steam account if you've linked it.

That's really cool. To have an actual useful way to eliminate enemies way over your level.
Never used Axii in W1 since upgrade-points were rare and there was also no level system ala Borderlands. Quite excited.

Played some AC:Rogue yesterday.
That game is totally a reskinned Black Flag. I mean even the Shanty Songs are the same and the america portion kinda feels they reused AC3 assets.

I watched it because of a GAF thread hyping the action. Wasn't disappointed.
Still need to see madmax

Kingsman had horrible cg too and there is no real terminator lore left to shit on that hasn't been obliterated by the last 2. It's not like the plot of kingsman is high art or even slightly clever it's just a fun riff on James Bond with entertaining action.

massive chalice kind of has the exact same immediately apparent issues i noticed during the beta
the concept sounds cool but imo it just doesn't work. having the same squad over many missions makes you grow fond for your dudes so deaths feel a lot worse and upgrades and lucky shots and surviving with 1 hp just feel much sweeter. it's just way more tense when there's someone's life down the line
but since massive chalice has the whole eugenics thing, your squad isn't really made up of ppl you'll grow to love, and instead they're just a bunch of reocurring lastnames that with some luck are funny. i lost track of who's who pretty early on and now pretty much send to battle whoever's available and highest level+youngest. i just gave up on remembering ppl because they keep dying of old age so why bother
and the other big problem for me is that the "base management" is just way too simple. it looks like a lot because you have upgrades and buildings and marriages and stuff, but since you can only do one upgrade at a time, there's no currency or reputation or other things to manage, and because the limited pool of heroes make it so that your choices for babymaking are often very few.
some other issues like how difficult it is to track ppl because of the not-so-great base management interface (so many screen transitions for everything...) or the nature of the whole class inheriting thing making it so that you're often running out of a certain class (for me it's hunters), or not being able to know the attack range of the monsters, etc.
the combat itself is really fun and i feel like the classes and enemy types are more creative and fun than in xcom, but even then there's so far only one objective type and it'll probably get old quick
i thought it was really fun but once is enough

I agree with Zkylon. It was a good flick but once was enough for me.

The other thing that I really don't like about Massive Chalice is that breeding a whole lot of crossbow wielding heroes seems to be the only "efficient" choice. With a squad of crossbow troopers I can take on anything and don't usually lose anyone.

Mad Max was great, but I don't see the point in watching it again.
There's other movies that have been released this year that I would rather see again (Avengers, Furious 7, It Follows, and Spy).

That witcher 3 duck GIF might be me when I see Jurassic World. If it's that good I'll watch it back to back. Did that with JP3D

I haven't seen Mad Max. I was too lazy to book tickets for the theater that's (almost) across the street from where I live. Yup.
By the end of Summer I think. They've recently gone quiet with updates in the last push toward launch and they estimated it would take a month or two, and that was said around May.

Wasn't there a game developed by NeoGAF members that had a similar idea to Broforce? Whatever happened to that game?
EDIT: I just looked at my profile and it has been exactly 11 years since I signed up for this NeoGAF account. I was a lurker before I signed up and I think I had an account during the time that it was apart of the Gaming-Age website.

I wanted to be there so much, but work is crazy right now, so I decided not to buy tickets. Next year, I hope.
Another one was released near the launch of Wild Hunt, I think it's... Sword of Destiny?
Whichever one it is, I've ordered it and will get it within a week :']
Hi guys!
Missed ya bitch. Welcome back!
11 years, wow...
been only 5 for me but feels like a lot more
i just don't particularly enjoy feeling like i don't have all that much control over what kinds of troops i have. i know i could be doing a lot more eugenics strategy and whatnot but i don't find that too compelling specially since the payoff is ppl that get to fight like one battle or two at best and you never see again
it's really the kind of movie that's better in the movies

not really, i generally don't care much for action movies but i don't hate them. i really like terminator 2 for example
hey, i'm not saying it's bad
EDIT: This picture is going to get some mileage, I think.
i seem to be doing ok with tons of explosive caberjacks and a mix of regular alchemists and like the assassin alchemists

i thought avengers 2 was pretty garbage but i kind of want to watch that last fast and furious movie, if anything because it's gotten so ridiculous that i've started to like it
if you're into that sort of stuff i do recommend you watch it a movie theater

ARK: Survival Evolved's sales have been insane. It's been 5 days since release and it has sold 266,000 copies. http://steamspy.com/app/346110
I wonder if this is the fastest selling early access / open world survival game? DayZ took a month to hit 1 million, H1Z1 took 2 months, and Rust took 2 months.
And I wouldn't be surprised if sales jump during the summer sale (even though I doubt it'll be further discounted. Maybe Valve could release the 2 and 4 packs during the summer sale?).

Isn't the game really badly optimized?

I guess most buy it for the potential and Dinos. And judging from the Trailer it looks good, but when I see screenshot it kinda looks... not as good as the trailer.
I rather wait to see what they come up with. I am stoked that it will have VR Support though.
